{{Wikipedia how-to|WP:PMID|WP:PUBMED}}
The {{tl|PMID}} template is used to create a link from a [[PMID]] codes for life sciences and biomedical articles to [[PubMed]].

'''Example''':

:Correct: <code><nowiki>{{PMID|4957203}}</nowiki></code> &rarr; {{PMID|4957203}}
:Incorrect: <code><nowiki>PMID 4957203</nowiki></code> &rarr; PMID 4957203
:Incorrect:  <code><nowiki>PMID:4957203</nowiki></code> &rarr; PMID:4957203
:Incorrect:  <code><nowiki>PubMed 4957203</nowiki></code> &rarr; PubMed 4957203

==Multiple PMIDs==
If multiple PMIDs need to be listed in a row (for example in a table), this can be accomplished using the multiple template arguments.

:{{tlx|PMID|id1|id2|id3|id4|...}}

'''Example''' (with "," as default leadout):
:{{tlx|PMID|4957203|4957203|4957203|4957203}}
results in:
:{{PMID|4957203|4957203|4957203|4957203}}

'''Example''' (with "and" as leadout):
:{{tlx|PMID|4957203|4957203|4957203|4957203|leadout{{=}}and}}
results in:
:{{PMID|4957203|4957203|4957203|4957203|leadout=and}}

==In citation templates==
A single PMID can also be included in templates such as the {{cs1}} series by means of the {{para|pmid}} parameter. Integer values starting at <code>1</code> are allowed.

The linking is done internally to the template using a module or a subtemplate. The "PMID" string links to the article "[[PubMed]]", and the PMID number links to the PubMed article with that number.

:{{cite journal |author-last1=Koprowski |author-first1=H. |author-last2=Wiktor |author-first2=T. J. |author-last3=Kaplan |author-first3=M. M. |date=1960-04-28 |title=Enhancement of rabies virus infection by lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus |journal=Virology |volume=28 |number=4 |pages=754-756 |pmid=4957203}}
